My Oct 2010 trip

Zambia between 24 Oct 2010 and 15 Nov 2010

Trip rating: Excellent
"Well-organised, pleasant trip that was in all respects what we had hoped for, no unpleasant surprises, very efficiently organised without any delays. Thank you, Claire

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Maybe some more attention for Kafue would help the development of this enormous park. More facilities and more tourism may help in the struggle against poaching.

The same goes for Kasanka which is interesting for birders."

"Lufupa Bushcamp review"

1 night Arrived 1 Nov 2010
"this was the second stay on our way back, just to spend the night.
Overall we were very satisfied with our guide Brent Harris, who gave us a lot of background information and showed real passion.
Some advice to Wilderness: please make sure that the vehicles are allright, Brent's had three bad tyres and no wheelspanner. Guides should not be put in awkward positions unnecessarily."

"Wasa Lodge review"

2 nights Arrived 2 Nov 2010
"Kasanka is still under development, interesting because of researchers active in the park. Our guide might have told us a bit more, instead of just pointing at animals. A great contrast to Brent Harris in Kafue!"

"Tafika review"

5 nights Arrived 9 Nov 2010
"Clearly a camp run by the same people for many years, which is an advantage in this case. Well-run by John, Carol and Brian, who are still passionate after all these years, this camp has some extras such as a microlight and a fanatic birder (Brian). To us, being interested in birds, this was a nice asset"
